"Look, I was with fans and so was Jeff. When the s–t hit the fan, I went over there and said, "The most important thing to do, man, is say, ‘I f–ked up,’” Miller said. 'He’d already sent a tweet out an hour before I got there. He’s a good man. It was exactly the right way to handle that. The fans have a voice in this too. There’s a right way to listen."

Miller said he thinks the movie delay will be worth it and when asked if he's seen any of the new designs, he responded, "in fact I have. And I think the fans will be pleased."
